'While <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> is a very real, existential threat, if government agencies are allowed to rush through permitting processes to fast-track destructing mining projects like the one at Thacker Pass, more of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NaturalWorld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NaturalWorld</span></a> and more Native American culture will be destroyed.' </p><p>"The new ruling is the latest in a series of legal setbacks for opponents of the lithium mine. Over the summer, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals declined to vacate federal land managers’ approval of a lithium mine, ruling that the U.S. government took a sufficiently 'hard look' at the project’s impacts before approving it.</p><p>"Before that, Du also ruled largely in favor of Lithium Nevada and the Bureau of Land Management in a consolidated case involving claims brought by environmental groups, a local rancher, and two Native American tribes.</p><p>"'We’ve dedicated more than a decade to community engagement and hard work in order to get this project right, and the courts have again validated the efforts by Lithium Americas and the administrative agencies,' said Tim Crowley, the vice president of government and community relations for Lithium Nevada, in a statement."</p><p><a href="https://www.nevadacurrent.com/2023/11/21/judge-again-rules-against-tribes-effort-to-stop-lithium-mine/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nevadacurrent.com/2023/11/21/j</span><span class="invisible">udge-again-rules-against-tribes-effort-to-stop-lithium-mine/</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NativeAmericanHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NativeAmericanHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CulturalGenocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CulturalGenocide</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RespectTheTreaties" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RespectTheTreaties</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LithiumAmericas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LithiumAmericas</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OpenPitMining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenPitMining</span></a></p>
